The Denver Nuggets (-518) host the New Orleans Pelicans (+418) in a Western Conference showdown at Ball Arena. The point spread sits at -10.5 (-110) in favor of Denver, with 60% of the betting public backing the Nuggets to cover.
Denver has been dominant at home, and with Nikola Jokić leading the charge, their offense could overwhelm a young Pelicans squad.
However, double-digit spreads can be tricky, and New Orleans has the firepower to keep it respectable. If the Pelicans’ defense can slow down Denver’s pace, they could sneak in a backdoor cover.
With public money leaning heavily on Denver, sharp bettors might consider Pelicans +10.5 as a value play. Expect a high-paced battle in the altitude of Denver.
